Jina Bacarr's Bio

Jina Bacarr loves adventure in exotic locales, which led her to write the award-winning non-fiction book, The Japanese Art of Sex, and the RIO Award-winning novel, The Blonde Geisha, the only erotic novel to win the Mainstream Fiction category. She worked as the Japanese consultant for KCBS-TV, MSNBC, The Pleasure Zone, Tech TV's Wired for Sex and British Sky Broadcasting's Saucy TV. She's also acted in Japanese TV commercials, worked as a companion girl for a Japanese company, wrote forty scripts for daytime television (including thirty animation scripts) and has had three plays produced in Malibu, California. Along the way, she learned to speak six languages and is an art history devotee, which led her to pose as an artist's model, first in Laguna Beach, then in Italy. Her travels have taken her to nearly every state in the U.S. and around the world. For her erotic novel Naughty Paris (SPICE, July 2007), she drew upon her experiences living in the City of Light and her love of French Impressionism to re-create the raucous and erotic world of 1889 Paris.
